New Moon Chinese New Year Monkey

Mardi Gras New Hampshire Primary Valentine

 

Chinese New year New Moon 19+ Aquarius

“A White Dove descends bringing a message of Peace. Ushering in new possibilities, having traveled through crisis, a deep spiritual blessing from the Soul Realm: “Mission accomplished. Peace be with you.”

As the Chi Gung healers chant: “It has already happened.”

 

 

O treasured Trickster Training Council, long-time and recent team-mates, a celebration of our New Moon Aquarius convivial cahooting, and wishing each other well:

“A friend is a loved one who awakens your life in order to free the wild possibilities within you”

 

 

 

May the nourishment of the earth be yours,

may the clarity of light be yours,

may the fluency of the ocean be yours,

may the protection of the ancestors be yours.

And so may a slow wind work these words of love around you,

an invisible cloak to mind your life.

-John O’Donohue

 

 

And what sizzly fun, Mars at that great degree of positive sorcery, square Sun in Aquarius, let us invite liberating Trickster- Spirit of Monkey Mardi Gras into the NH primary (and everywhere)

“May anything sketchy be revealed, rendered harmless and an occasion for mirth.”

 

 

and such a grand time for the Bardic Spirit (Neptune) to guide us on our liberating journey (Saturn in Sagittarius trining Uranus).

 

“When we approach with reverence, great things decide to approach us. Our real life comes to the surface and its light awakens the concealed beauty in things. When we walk on the earth with reverence, beauty will decide to trust us. The rushed heart and arrogant mind lack the gentleness and patience to enter that embrace.”

-John O’Donohue, Beauty: The Invisible Embrace

 

 

and always good, but especially grand for this New Moon:

 

“In out of the way places of the heart,

Where your thoughts never think to wander,

This beginning has been quietly forming,

Waiting until you were ready to emerge.

For a long time it has watched your desire,

Feeling the emptiness growing inside you,

Noticing how you willed yourself on,

Still unable to leave what you had outgrown.

It watched you play with the seduction of safety

And the gray promises that sameness whispered.

Heard the waves of turmoil rise and relent,

Wondered would you always live like this.

Then the delight, when your courage kindled,

And out you stepped onto new ground,

Your eyes young again with energy and dream,

A path of plenitude opening before you.

Though your destination is not yet clear

You can trust the promise of this opening;

Unfurl yourself into the grace of beginning

That is at one with your life’s desire.

Awaken your spirit to adventure;

Holding nothing back, learn to find ease in risk;

Soon you will be home in a new rhythm,

For your soul senses the world that awaits you.”

-John O’Donohue
